Words: John Newton, "Refreshed by the Bread and Wine"
Music: Rick Jensen, (c) 2011
lyrics
Freshened by the bread and wine,
pledges of our Savior's love;
Now let hearts and voices join
In songs of praise with those above.
If they behold him face to face,
While we a glimpse can only see;
Yet equal debtors to his grace,
As safe and as beloved are we.
Do they sing, "Worthy is the Lamb?"
Though we cannot reach their strains,
Yet we, through grace, can sing the same,
For us he died, and for us he reigns.
They once had a suff'ring time,
cares and fears, and griefs they knew;
But they have conquered all through him,
And we, ere long, shall conquer too.
And they sing, "Worthy is the Lamb!"
[O Lord now open up our lips!]
Though we cannot reach their strains,
[And our voice shout aloud thy praise!]
Yet we, through grace, can sing the same,
[Glory to Father Son and Flame]
For us he died, and for us he reigns.
Though all songs of saints in light,
Are far beneath his matchless worth;
His grace is such, he will not slight
The poor attempts of us on earth.
So we sing, "Worthy is the Lamb!"
[O Lord now open up our lips!]
Though we cannot reach their strains,
[And our voice shout aloud thy praise!]
Yet we, through grace, can sing the same,
[Glory to Father Son and Flame]
For us he died, and for us he reigns.
For us he died, and for us he reigns.
For us he died, and for us he reigns.
